The Les Paul Standard ’60s: Powered by ProBuckers

Gibson’s original PAF (Patent Applied For) pickups are some of the most sought-after humbuckers in history. They are the sound of British blues. Epiphone’s ProBuckers are built with the same tone in mind—warm and fat. The Les Paul Standard ’60s features 2 ProBuckers with dual volume and tone controls wired with CTS pots.

Body and Neck Construction

Epiphone’s AA maple top adds clarity and spank to the mahogany body. This wood combination has been with the Les Paul Standard since the beginning. The mahogany neck has a slim taper ’60s C-shape. Finally, check out the headstock—it’s a redesign that is closer to Gibson’s “open book” headstock, but with enough variation to give the Epiphone a new identity.

Other ’60s Specs

Epiphone outfitted the Les Paul Standard ’60s model with tried-and-true hardware: a LockTone tune-o-matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece and Grover high-ratio Rotomatic tuners.
This Standard is a standout in the Epiphone line. If you want a ‘Paul with a comfortable neck and classic sounds, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard ’60s is worth a deeper dive.
